THE SANDS OF DEE

[271] I have often had the pleasure of riding across the coast from
Chester, England, to Rhyl, on the north coast of Wales, where
stretch "The Sands of Dee" (Charles Kingsley, 1819-75). These purple
sands at low tide stretch off into the sea miles away, and are said to
be full of quicksands."
